The Potters’ physical approach posed problems early on but Bolton took control and went ahead when Gretar Steinsson’s attempted cross flew in.
Gary Cahill’s free-kick saw Kevin Davies’s flicked header make it 2-0 and Elmander sealed victory with a fine glancing header just before the break.
Substitute Ricardo Fuller made it 3-1 with an injury-time header for Stoke.
Fuller’s consolation was barely deserved although it was probably down to Bolton’s lack of ambition in an almost-chanceless second period.
